Rainmakers - Different Rub lyrics

rate me

(B. Walkenhorst)

Hot dot on a printed page

Airbrush every sign of age

Going under the surgeon's knife

Step daughter of a Stepford wife

That ain't what a woman is

That ain't what a woman is

Take a look at what you did

Granddaddy at the minstrel show

Watch the darkies frail the old banjo

Grandson at the strip club

A little racism with a different rub

It's the same difference with a different rub

Granddaddy never owned no slaves

Grandson never committed a rape

Just quiet men in their own time

But keeping quiet is it's own kind of crime

It's the same difference with a different rub

Bible-banger quoting verse declares

Blacks and women born cursed into

Wedding bands, slave rings

Martin Luther meet Martin Luther King

It's the same difference with a different rub

This ain't about no books that need burning

Less about flame and more about light

Freedom for one at the cost of another

This ain't about sin, it's about civil rights

That ain't what a woman is
